Happy Micarta Monday! I carried the Sencut Neches today.

I'm finally finished with all of the things I had to do. Now I'm going to enjoy some of the things I want to do.

Threw a pocket clip from another folder on my Rat, just for fun. I would like it better if the hardware was all polished.

It's just a .22. Those are 2 of my favorites. Thanks for sharing.

Blue Monday!!

Also! ChazzyP Here you go! I hadn't forgotten, just had a busy weekend!! As you can see, Hinderer's blue is great:

Those are sweet! Not sure which I like better. The way he did the machining on the g-10 is super cool.

What’s all the brass nuts for? There might be more money there then your knife today

That’s a gorgeous Manix ! Love the scales and thus far, Cruwear is my all time favorite steel in a folder.

Thanks! And yes, it is very impressive. I think I may like Maxamet a little better, but it’s a close race. Cruwear is certainly more well rounded.

F&F is very good - I wouldn’t call it excellent. There are small/minor voids in the micarta. At the price point I’d expect none. The blade is spectacular, which was the main reason I picked it up. The overall ergonomics are ok, definitely will give you a hotspot around the clip and edges of the grip with prolonged use. Not to say it’s not up to your standard knife tasks - it certainly is, but I have other knives that would be better choices for prolonged cutting needs.

The selling point for me was the blade make-up. Sherman tank parts in the blade? Are you kidding me? As a WWII history buff I just had to have it. I’ll be picking up the 2022 Barlow when it’s available for a collectible set. That marketing was created for this fool right here. Honestly that’s the main reason this knife spoke to me at the price point. Without that bit of marketing I’d say the knife is overpriced by $75 - $100. IMO.

Thank you for the detailed answer. I don’t know how I missed it, but I wanted to reply even though it has been a while. Thank you again. And I’m with you, the blade composition is a strong draw.

I'll stick with CRKs this week while I wait for my latest to show up, switching from yesterday's 31 to an Inkosi but staying with natural inlays for Micarta Monday.

Just another Manix Monday. Got this game as a gift from my cousin for my birthday back in early April, finally got to play it Saturday night. Complicated, but really fun once you get the hang of it. He's more like a brother than a cousin. Once a month I drive downtown and rescue him for a weekend from the cesspool that is Chicago.

Gotta love the way a Manix 2 feels in hand, right? Love a PM2 as well.
